Animal behavior issues are well known to be caused by “FEAR”. If you’ve witnessed or experienced dog aggression, it is usually based on fear or guarding behaviors that we see in many pets. Anxiety or fear turns on the “fight or flight” response in dogs, cats and horses for that matter. Research suggests that if the calm and peaceful side of the brain is “turned on”, the anxiety or fear side of the brain less responsive to trigger influences for the pet. Triggers for example can be loud noises such as Thunderstorms/Fireworks or scary events such as car rides. Aggressive reaction to other dogs or even certain people, mail delivery or strangers knocking at your door for instance. The swaddling effect of the Swaddle T-Shirt helps to calm the animal. Sometimes it’s a matter of building trust with your pet but an animal can benefit from the calming effect of an Anti-Anxiety T-Shirt.
